Just saw where Tom Owen/ Tom Simmonite passed away back in November 2022.....he was only 73! 😣 His father, Bill Owen/Compo Simmonite died at 85... Love these episodes , keeps them all alive in a sense. ❣️

"She left me!" Says Smiles. "How did you manage that? My missus never leaves me!" Brilliant! Love this show.

Such a relaxing show, when I get home after work so nice to watch so silly but in a wonderful way

Love love love this show! No sex, no naked bodies writhing, just great humour! Many thanks!

Great story I heard about Peter Sallis. When Nick Park was making Wallis and Gromit and had little money he approached Peter Sallis (Clegg) about doing the voice. And Sallis agreed to do it for nothing as Park was skint, he said “if it’s successful then you can pay me”. What a guy!!!

Back in the day, I wasn't all that into this series, but I will admit these shows are starting to grow on me.

Great writing! It's amazing how the writer's were able to weave the story lines together in such an easy way like this.

Be nice to have a group of friends to get in trouble with like these mates.

If you like Clegg then check out first of the summer wine it's about their lives at 18 years of age set in the 1930's

Mrs Richards: "I paid for a room with a view!" Basil: (pointing to the lovely view) "That is Torquay, Madam." Mrs Richards: "It's not good enough!" Basil: "May I ask what you were expecting to see out of a Torquay hotel bedroom window? Sydney Opera House, perhaps? the Hanging Gardens of Babylon? Herds of wildebeest sweeping majestically past?..." Mrs Richards: "Don't be silly! I expect to be able to see the sea!" Basil: "You can see the sea, it's over there between the land and the sky." Mrs Richards: "I'm not satisfied. But I shall stay. But I expect a reduction." Basil: "Why?! Because Krakatoa's not erupting at the moment?"

To Be honest it’s the passing of the cakes around. My mum would always buy two chocolate eclair and keep one in the fridge. In case She wast fast enough.

Remember when Smiler was a different character early on in the show and was in the hospital wanting to see his dog?

Love this show! Thank you!

I'm Alvin, swimmer of rivers. And as always to much can laughter.

I've watched this one, as long as all the others 100s of times over the years and yet never noticed that Clegg had lost most of his hair . Funny, I guess I've always been so enamored with him I just didnt notice. RIP my favorite actors and show.

Actually Smiler, is probably the most grounded of the bunch.

I'll like some other show please I live on this show no guns no blowing up no swearing, I love it we need some others please thank you. And keep going on

I just learned we lost Electric Entwistle in May."See ya, Kato"!

Funny: some women as treacle tarts! There were none of those in this video. They were mostly mean and nasty.

"if Norman wrote this and it would be turned into a novel it would be like Peyton Place but it would entitled.......... Holmfirth Place it would become a best selling novel but seriously would anybody believe this is based on a True Story it we a laugh riot and maybe be turned into a movie produced by BBC and not a Hollywood film because they would just mess it up."
